Error in Crunch: Status = -1 Code = 2

[PentiumV]

Hey everyone.
I'm new to Backtrack and Linux and just starting to understand the basics.
Anyway, when experimenting with crunch i got an error message:

1Error renaming file. Status = -1 Code = 2
The problem is = No such file or directory

What I typed in was just:

root@bt:/pentest/passwords/crunch# ./crunch 1 4 -o wordlist.txt

Any idea what happened here?


Btw, typing
root@bt:/pentest/passwords/crunch# ./crunch 1 4 | pyrit -e Kreta -i - -r /Kreta/wpa2-01.cap attack_passthrough

just gives me a

...
Picked AccessPoint 00:1a:2a:55:17:00 automatically...
Tried 0 PMKs so far; 0 PMKs per second.

Password was not found.

It doesn't seem to receive any wordlist data what matches the error above.

Strange error on crunch, never seen that before, but perhaps bofh28 can clarify.

Does it print correctly to screen when using basic commands ?

/pentest/passwords/crunch/./crunch 4 4

[PentiumV]

yup, works just fine when printing direct on the screen via framebuffer. weird...

Printing to screen with framebuffer works perfectly fine. It's just the output...

What version of crunch are you using? The version can be found at the top of the help screen. i.e. ./crunch
Are you booting BT from USB or DVD?

Version 2.0. I have the same problem. I can do everything but write the list to a file... any solutions or do I wait for a new version to come out?

--have to use crunch; who uses passwords less than 8 chars anymore?
